reply

so do to the fact that i stopped at a Yellow light the crazy black lady behind me loses her mind. i motioned to the traffic backed up in front of me but this didn't stop her from trying to run me off the Road. I'm once again considering a Dashcam but could the Cops do anything about this just on the video alone ?

reply

FORGET THE DASHCAM...GET A FLAREGUN...PEOPLE DON'T KNOW HOW TO HANDLE IT WHEN THEY HAVE FLARES SHOT AT THEM.

reply

her windows were rolled up it wouldn't have been affective

reply

If THEY have a dashcam, or just someone who can get your license number, there's always a chance they could handle it by getting you sent to jail.

If not for assault with a deadly weapon, then for starting a fucking wildfire! Keerist, do NOT try this in a dry western state, you could kill people or burn a whole town out of their homes.

reply

I HAVE BEEN SHOOTING FLARES AT CARS FOR YEARS...NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS.🙂

reply

Please tell me you live in a rain forest. Like, preferably in the wettest part of New Guinea, where it rains 300+ days per year!

Because per the National Intraagency Fire Center, "Aerial flares and road flares that are mishandled or improperly placed are a highly competent wildfire ignition source. " Seriously, if you don't live in a swamp, PLEASE read up on the potential dangers of flare guns in dry country before you pull the damn thing out again! Don't be the guy who took the Idiot Crown away from the people who started a huge wildfire with a gender reveal party.

If this lady was white would you have called her a white lady or just a lady?

reply

I work with gamblers. My favourite kind of stupid are the ones whole try to tilt the video roulette machines to make the ball go round more. And the ones who tell us with absolute certainty that the machines are rigged whilst still sat there putting all their money in. You can't reason with stupid 🙄

reply

are you a dealer or a pit boss ? if so what casino do you work at

reply

It's just machines where I work.

There are different types of gambling establishments in Britain. You have just bingo, arcades(bingo and machines), betting shops, and casinos.I'm in an arcade.

reply

are these everywhere in britain ? and the betting shops are for Sports betting ?

reply

Yes to both.

reply

Are the articles about setting percentages of house pay outs (meaning the payout rates are in fact adjustable on digital machines, which makes logical sense to me as long as it is with in that states law) on machines inaccurate?

reply

Not in Britain. You'd lose your licence if you lied to customers.

Say if a machine is 86%, people think they should win the jackpot but that includes any win line, not just the jackpot. Also the 86% is from something like every 1000 spins, not just the £10 you put in.

The saying "the house always wins" is true.

reply

Oh this could be an entertaining thread. :)

Luckily, irl, my run ins are super rare. Other than traffic. Even that is reduced by my commute choices.
Is mostly online where I see POS spouting insane nonsense. Here and other sites and in the "news"

reply

Could you either remove that quotation mark form the thread title or put another one in please ?
its hurting my brain

reply

Nope. It's all on you to not be offended nor triggered by something someone ELSE does. :)
Welcome to life. :)

(I know you were kidding about, but I didn't want to miss this perfect opportunity to educate")

reply

if you read the previous post you'll discover this was someone elses phrase but i'll take it off

reply

You're going to wake up and face the day, probably running into a few stupid people. Question is, will you decide to get angry and offended? And if so, how does that anger and pain benefit you?

reply

I went to park my car in the hotel car park and a People of Stupid had managed to perfectly straddle 2 spaces, meaning I had to use the overflow car park 🙄

reply
